Millet, trait (+ very wood one, and strongly painted.) is that of Miss Kate Fieid, and that Miss Gard- ner has choseh an American subj-ct, “Priscilla ja Purltalue” (Mivs Standish), for her salon ple~ ture; but the other artists ‘mentioned paint purely foreign subjects, which, aitaough good, can be better cone by tha masters who taught them !n own country.

THE WH OF NIRULISM. Some Of Its Teachers, (New York Times. } The Czar who succeeded Alexander I. sanc- tioned measures of extreme severity against all Outlets of freedom of opinion. According to a thoughtful German writer, who lived many years in the Russian metropolis, and whosa Tecent work on his Russian experiences has mee carefully translated by Fatrtax Taylor, a Mae site ne lores insurrection , Openly avow ag the enemy of Euro} civilizat tion. A stern censorship was established astride all Russian Literature, Whether It was in the shape of books, pamph- lets, magazines, Or newspapers. As it was belleved that the demons of assassination and revolution sprang from France and other free- thinking countries of western Europe, the gov- ernment of St. Petersburg considered it wise to check a8 much as ble all intercourse between its subjects and that same objectiona- ble Western Europe. Nevertheless, there gtew up again societies of educated men, pounce tm a bold, free-thinking manner. In ‘Moscow, the soctety of which Alexander Her- zen, @ brillant but vain and arrogant literateur of alstinguished family, and Michael Bakunta, an intellectual lieutenant of artillery, were toe Principal ornaments, the principle; of Hege:’s pLilosophy were discuesed wila animation and Pectinacity. An ordinary philosopher might hot be able to see in Hegel the rudiments of eas pelltical dogmas, but the case was differ ent when Hegel's abstruse speculations fell int» tue hands cf ambitious, young and restless oliticlans Uke the clique which reconize4 jakUnIN as thelr leader. Hating his own co. try, and ambitious of being abie one day to he p bis people to secure their Mberties, Michal Bakunin fled to Berlin, where he stadied mor intensely than ever all the mysticlsms of Hes. Ta 1842 he was busy tn Dresden, where he fount that from Heg: Positivism aud Negativisa he could constr for himself a’ paiiti- cal system of revolution. He wrote eni Spoke incessantly about the everlasting nO, and was a declared admirer and disciple of Negativism. Having completed hig pecuitar education at Dresden, Bakunin went to Paris and Ln declared himseif a Russian re‘u gee. He gathered a crowd of discontented pa- triots around him, and he was able to collect ie sums for the organization of societies which should work together for the liberation of Russia from autocratic goverament. At the ned Polish banquet of 1547, he made a speech. which he fully doscribed his revolutionary Principles. He told the Poles and Russians, and whoever else were near him, that there would quickly be a revolution of the future; that that revolution would make amends to Poland, and would also remove forever all dit ferences between the two leading families of Slavs, and unite tho lands east and west of the Oder into a proper and benificent federative republic. Tuls speech, echoed as it was throughout Europe, foun ita way by surreptitious means into the Czars dominions. * Representations were made from St. Petersburg to Paris that Baku- nin should be handed over to representatiy of Russia, and at the same tim? the Rasslan Government offered 9 reward of £10,000 for Bakunin’s capture. The gentleman who had discovered the art of revolution in Hegelisnm thought it was wiser to fly from Paris than to Stay there and assert his rights to be a free gucst of the people of France, He next ap- peared in Brussels, where he employed his Ume in disseminating his revolutionary prin- cipies. Then hefled again to London, where be assumed the editorship of the notorious anti- Russian journal, the Aolokol. Tnousands of copies of this revolutionary sheet were smuggled weekly into Kuasla, and the Government tried all it could to discover the smugglers, at the same time threatening with fine and imprisonment all those wio might be discovered in possession of the obfac- Monable sheet. With the Xo‘o¥! in his power, Bakunin grew rabid in his political hatreis. His Hegelian Negativism rapldily became nihilism, neither more nor less. Destruction became his idol. The length to which Bakunin bad gone tu advocaling pure destruction dis- usted the majority of the tntelligent political theorists with whom he found himself in sym- pathy In his earller days, when he was trylag to discover as a scholar and philosooher tne meanings of Hegel. ‘They not only forsook the Kotvkot, Which had been for loag thelr cher- secret Voice of independence, buy when Bakunin died, a few years ago, they Welcsméed the fact as a blessed deliveranca, Shortly after Bakunio’s death the result of bis teachings became apparent on the surface in Russia itself.
